those rails seen better days like when they where brand new mant many moons ago, butt sharp units

The evening rush at Linden, New Jersey on 17 May 2024 was a fantastic railfanning experience, Frank! Thank you for taking the time to capture this experience for us! (Posted 26 July 2024 at 1728 CDT.)

Thank you for another busy railfanning day from your trip out east in May 2024, Frank! This video from 16 May 2024 at Riverdale, New York was a busy day along the Metro-North Line with lots of commuter and Amtrak trains. You also managed to catch a few Heritage units in this video.

Hellgate Bridge is a massive structure and a wonderful location for railfan, Frank! Thank you for filming this video at Hellgate Bridge! (Posted 23 July 2024 at 1741 CDT.)

Thank you, Frank, for this short busy video from Harrison, New Jersey from 15 May 2024! (Posted 23 July 2024 at 1619 CDT.)

Every time I see Hell's Gate, I think about this. czcams.com/video/VMttICy5MSg/video.html NYC is quite a bit different than the Stack Trains in Chicago.

That is freaking awesome! Thanks for sharing!

The Town of Harrison, Hudson County, New Jersey. The home of the New Jersey Red Bulls 🐂. 😀⚽

You found a great deal of railfan activity in Ridgefield, New Jersey on 11 May 2024, Frank! CSX's River Subdivision appears to be a a reliable source of revenue based on the number of trains that you saw on 11 May 2024. (Posted 10 July 2024 at 0024 CDT.)

That theme from the beginning looks like gta 4

Your decision to railfan at Metuchen, New Jersey on 9 May 2024 proved to be a good decision, Frank! There was a lot of New Jersey Transit and Amtrak action at Metuchen on that day. (Posted at 2029CDT.)

Wow! How did you find this location and manage to be here when the Hi-Railer was about to enter the freight tunnels? You had to be at the right place at the right time to catch this action! (Posted 18 July 2024 at 1908 CDT.)

You are so lucky you got to film here, when I went me and my friend got kicked out by the cops for filming... They violated our rights while we were not whatsoever obstructing anybody.

Nice video of New Jersey Transit commuter trains, Frank! I enjoyed watching the juice trains> I also thought added a pleasant change. (Post 14 July 2024 at 1905.)

Nice catch of these two Norfolk Southern engines making their way to service a customer in Hazelton, Pennsylvania on 6 May 2024, Frank! That crane that starts to appear in the background at 1:52 looks interesting. Did you have a chance to get a closer look at the crane? (Posted 12 July 2024 at 1904 CDT.)

You caught some splendid railfanning action at Tyrone and Altoona, Pennsylvania on 6 May 2024 along the Chicago/Pittsburgh Line of the Norfolk Southern Railroad, Frank! An Amtrak train pulled into Altoona, Pennsylvania while you were there. Thank you for having this video uploaded for us to enjoy! (Posted 12 July, 2024 at 0002 CDT.)

Are these 1st or 2nd generation Railbox cars, or a mixture of both?

That was a lengthy line of RBOX 50-foot general purpose boxcars. I wonder if Rail Box is replacing these older boxcars with newer 50-goot boxcars. The boxcars could be in storage here to be sold or scrapped. Nice find, Frank! (_0sted 10 July 2024 at 2354 CDT.)

Classics that served the rails so well. Nice catch Frank.

Thank you for taking us to the Cleveland Cliffs Steel Company's Cleveland Works to watch the Cleveland Works Railway Company switching cars in the steel plant. This was an interesting viewing experience, Frank! (Posted 10 July 2024 at 1645 CDT.)

"Shov'n da J" then you'd stop right at the old diamonds strip club😅

BNSF 9956 at 3:04 is now be used on the BNSF Gas Local

This is an interesting Bridge and causeway in Sandusky Bay at Bay View, Ohio, Frank! Nice catch of the trains crossing the bridge and the causeway! (Posted 9 July 2024 at 16:49 CDT.)

Nice

YOu caught some nice trains on your trip from Montpelier, Ohio to Toledo, Ohio on 4 May 2024, Frank! Thank you for having this short video uploaded to your channel. (Posted 8 July 2024 at 1857 CDT.)

Hi cool. Real cool if you put 3-d printed back drop on the walls you thi k you are looking at a real train. O.k

Great catches and awesome video

somebody was on the wrong track.??

Thank you for this short video of Amtrak and Metra action at Lumber Street in Chicago, Illinois on 1 May 2024, Frank! I enjoyed watching this video. (16 June 2024 at 1909 CDT)

Putting intercity train on a local track should immediately get that dispatcher fired.

Thank you for another video from the rooftop on Kinzie Street along the Metra Union Pacific West Line tracks to and from the Ogilvie Transportation Center and the Metra Milwaukee District tacks to and from the north side of side of Chicago Union Station, Frank! It was unusual to see that inbound Amtrak Hiawatha train stopping to allow the inbound Metra train to pass it. (13 May 2024 at 1713 CDT.)

Nice video of your railfanning experiences at Bridgeport Junction and from the rooftop along the Metra Union Pacific West Line coming out of Ogilvie Transportation Center and the Metra Milwaukee District tracks coming out of the north side of Chicago Union Station, Frank! Thank you for having this video uploaded to your channel for the rest of us to enjoy. (12 June 2024 at 2154 CDT.)

This is the closest freight yard to downtown now.

Thank you for this video of your railfanning in Northwest Indiana on 27 April 2024, Frank!

What railway engine is that?

Nice catch of Canadian National train #53691 on 22 April 2024, Frank! That was a long train.

21 April 2024 was an active day of railfanning for you at Van Loon Junction, Pine Junction and at CP (Control POint) 503 in Northwest Indiana. Thank you for taking the time to capture these trains and for having this video created and uploaded to your CZcams channel, Frank!

RIP Freedom Center

Thank you for this video of your railfanning on 20 April 2024 at Pine Junction and CP 504 in Northwest Indiana, Frank! I enjoyed watching this trains in this video.

Very cool

Great well done!

Nice video of railfanning in Chicago, Illinois on 16 Apri8l 2024, Frank! I am going to take a guess the Union Pacific train #YN06 is a local that runs out of the Union Pacific (former Chicago & North Western rail yard just north of North Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. The crew appears to be pulling an empty boxcar out of the Chicago Tribune's printing plant. The rest of the video of the Union Pacific switch crew portion of the video shows the crew returning to North Avenue Yard. The next sequence looks like you were at the Western Avenue Metra Station on the BNSF Metra Line. The Union Pacific double stack train is coming out of Global One. You caught the Amtrak trains coming out of the south end of Union Station in the area where the Amtrak facilities are located. The last Amtrak train was coming off the 21st Street lift bridge across the South Branch of the Chicago River. Canadian National train #L537 was eastbound heading to the 16th Street crossing after passing under the Dan Ryan Expressway. Are you sure that this train is Canadian National train #L53791? That train number is assigned to a Canadiana National local that runs between Kirk Yard in Gary, Indiana with a stop to work Markham Yard in Homewood, Illinois and terminates at Glenn Yard in Chicago, Illinois. This train looks like it is heading eastbound rather than westbound. Also, this train is on duty at 16:00 at Kirk Yard. That would mean that the train arrives at Glenn Yard after dark. The direction and size of this train gives me the impression that it may be the daily Iowa Division train that originates in Waterloo, Iowa and terminates in Markham Yard.

Most excellent! Glad to see IC black still on the main.

You had a busy railfanning day at Van Loon Junction in Gary, Indiana on 13 April 2024, Frank. The Canadian National Railroad had was busy at Van Loon on that day. There was even a train meet in the video. The Norfolk Southern tracks were also busy with three trains including one Norfolk Southern train that stopped a northbound Canadian National train to wait at Van Loon to continue its journey to Kirk Yard. The last part of the video in Dyer, Indiana was taken at the crossing of the CSX tracks (former Monon tracks) and the Canadian National tracks (former Elgin, Joliet & Eastern tracks). This is the first time that I have seen a video of this crossing in Dyer, Indiana. Thank you for taking us to this location.

Great catches and awesome video

Thank you for this video of trains at the Brighton Park and Ash Street crossings in Chicago, Illinois on 11 April 2024, Frank! Those were some long trains that you caught at those locations.

Thank you for this video of another day of railfanning at Pine Junction in Gary, Indiana on 9 April 2024, Frank!
